Hey May and George So May you hate scrapping the inside of a kettle to get rid of lime scale. Have you ever tried using straight white vinegar?? Put about a cup in the kettle and swirl it around, then put the lid on and let it sit for a few hours. Then take a plastic scour pad and wipe the inside with the vinegar still in the kettle. WOW what amazing results and no metal on metal scrapping. By the way make sure you rinse the kettle out well. Another way is to boil the vinegar in the kettle with the lid on, that's the quick way.

Hate the smell of vinegar. Much prefer food-safe citric acid. Comes as a powder, mix with water in the kettle and warm up to speed it up ... Works perfectly

Ok borrow the opening monologue a very well know a science fiction show. " These are the continuing journeys of May and George, their ongoing quest to explore strange new canals, to seek new Adventures and new Horizons to go boldly and beyond Oxford." Alright it once again over the top, but it may way of saying just enjoy the journey and keep a journal (just for yourself) if you can. As one day it be something to look back and say yes I did and here's changed me.

@@wellbeingonwater Hi May. The reason for my thinking was the white patches on the red paint, either side of the top of the boat. After studying the previous episode when you painted the boat, I could see you hadn't got round to that as the boat left the dry dock. The boat looks great and is a credit to both yourself and George.

Hi May. A few things :- Why are you using White diesel fuel when you can save a lot of £ by using Red ( agricultural fuel ) ?. You definitely need to have a chain or something on your fuel tank cap,finding that in the murky waters would be a miracle. Your engine is smoking way too much ( and it is white smoke, which either means your injectors are reaching the end of their life,the engine is running on a bit of oil leaking past the piston rings or it is possible you have a diesel bug problem ( you can perform a test on the fuel in the tank and it is possible to get the fuel treated). The rubber grommets that you require for the roof,check Automobile parts stores because many Cars used to have a long conical shaped Rubber grommet that used to go through the Fire wall ( Engine compartment to interior of the car ) and they were used for cables/wires etc,George should Know what I mean. Heat Shrink Tubing is something else from Car shops that would be great for your electrical connections,you just pick the size you want ( it comes in a box of various sizes ) or you can just buy a roll of one size and you slip it over the connector and you can use a lighter or heat gun to shrink to fit an it will be completely waterproof and the connectors can’t come apart. Great to see you travelling a bit further afield and another great video.❤
